Guest WINGS 04 Posted October 12, 2005 Report Posted October 12, 2005 i have got a stock bird with a water poket under its keel at it has burst open when i touched it and a clot of blood fell out as well is the food to rich???
Silverdale Lofts Posted October 12, 2005 Report Posted October 12, 2005 Are you feeding a lot of protein wings?
Guest Posted October 13, 2005 Report Posted October 13, 2005 Wings I would try and detox the birds for 5 days, on a diet of nothing but good quality barley and green tea in the drinker. I usually brew the tea bags (4/6) in a tea pot then put the liquid in the drinker, two of the 5 days put a spoonfull of garlic oil in the drinker too, to purify the blood stream hope this helps
Guest shadow Posted October 13, 2005 Report Posted October 13, 2005 Put a clove of galic in the drinker and feed a light diet, I have just had one on a little hens back tied a piece of cotton roud the base of the cyst pulled really tight within four days the oozing blood had stopped and turned into a big black scab which fell off and you could not see where it had been by the end of the weekI have been told they are caused by to rich a diet and I have only found them on the odd bird during moulting fly hard fly fair
Guest WINGS 04 Posted October 13, 2005 Report Posted October 13, 2005 THANKS FOR YOUR HELP GOING TO GET SOME FOOD TONIGHT
Diamond dave Posted March 5, 2006 Report Posted March 5, 2006 I have had two birds with the "protein lumps" caused through too much protein when feeding only peas and beans - I dont think they do any harm other than restrict the birds movement. These are attached like a wart would be They are very obviously a blood blister about the size two peas. I got rid of them by tying fishing line very tightly to the base of the blister and they eventually fell off. I cant say that what you are describing is one and the same thing and dont understand why there should be a "pocket of water" unless its been caused by an injury ?????
